  Love Genevieve. Rosalind would be my 2nd choice. Both really great names.

  I think Genevieve and Alexandra are the least common on your list, which you said was important to you. I actually love both of those names and either would be lovely.

  Thanks for the input, everyone!  I really love Genevieve, but my husband and I can't agree on how we'd pronounce it.  He's Canadian, so he only sees the French pronunciation.  While I actually prefer it that way, I think the English pronunciation would work better since we now live in the States.  I also think the former would sound a bit pretentious.  Rosalind is probably my second favorite (at least for now).  We both like Elizabeth, but I worry it's too common.

  Good list. Victoria was my fav. You don't hear it much lately and it's a great name.

  What's the French pronounciation of Genevieve?

  Alexandra and Victoria are my favorites from your list. I voted for Alexandra because I like Alexandra's potential nicknames (Alex, Allie, Andie, Lexi) more than Victoria's potential nicknames (Vicki, Tori).

  To me, Genevieve is absolutely gorgeous. My great, great aunt's name was also Genevieve and my DD was almost named that. She was my dear aunt who I loved going over to visit. So you can only guess what my vote was for.

  I'm not sure I have the pronunciation exactly right, but it's something like this:

  
  

  English: JEH-neh-veev

  French: Zhawn-vee-ehv

  In my area, Eleanor is getting to be popular. I know 3 Eleanors born since February.

  Thanks for your responses, everyone.  You've helped me narrow down to Genevieve, Vivienne, Elizabeth, and Rosalind.  Luckily, I have plenty of time left to decide.
